Almost bought one of these 6 days ago... I want it! I have Sequential Circuits MAX I want to pair it with! Good video. You Went into nice detail. Thanks.
I had one of these back in the early 90s, hooked up to a Sequential Sixtrak and an Oberheim Prommer. I don’t get very nostalgic about it now though, it was hard work using it. A couple of tricks i used that you might like to try is to immediately follow a Tom or cymbal hit with a second hit set to zero volume which then mutes the first hit, gives a sort of gated reverb effect. The other thing is to reposition the 4-eproms of the cymbal sounds in a different order so instead of playing a single cymbal sound that fades smoothly to zero volume, you get a chopped cymbal sound where the volume fades are out of sequence.
I too had a similar hook up with the drumtracks & oberhiem prommer which I used as a sampler & a korg poly 61m. Apart from cables everywhere it was fun 😊
Thanks for sharing Rebecca, I have seen tons of videos of Midge Ure showing their synths and using the LM-1 and other drums but not the Drumtraks in those videos, but I wouldn’t be surprised if they use it.
@@RebeccaTurner-ny1xx I love the Lament album and I am listening the song now and indeed I can hear the Drumtraks and its identifiable kick. Such a great song, too.
It's a great drummachine. Got that 80s sound. Still have mine. I notice you have a different (and great sounding) kick sound, not the default eprom. I always have a fight with the swingmode😊
Yeah, it is a nice machine and definitely sounds very 80s. I was not aware that the kick sound was different from the original. Good to know because I heard complaints about the kick with this machine and thought people were being too harsh, now I understand.
Hey! The voice is actually compressed and no echo was added, maybe a bit of the room? but it sounds good to me. The Drumtraks does have a bit of Reverb I added to the mix :)
